Thanks for the advice given so far, I will have a look at them.
@Wojciech:
Your approach seems too simplistic to me. It might only work under very
specific circumstances but is impractical otherwise.
Consider, for example, a network consisting of machines of different types

boot anything.
Wojciech,
That is true, yes, but you have not answered the OPs question.
Yes i did - it is the way of doing repetitive installation
I used SystemImager for Linux installs, and I was curious about doing
something similar for FreeBSD.
By chance, I ran across this today, and now I am very excited about trying
it out.

I'd like to install FreeBSD on a number of machines, automatically and unattended over Ethernet via PXE. I'm quite familiar with FAI, which does a great job for Debian, and I'd like to know whether there is something similar for FreeBSD too. So far I only found a guide for jumpstart.

Hello list,

unattended over Ethernet via PXE. I'm quite familiar with FAI, which does a
great job for Debian, and I'd like to know whether there is something similar
